Acorriding to FeliCa Lowenstein Niven in the book Fabulous Fashion of the 1960s the hair of the 1960s was a lot different than it is now. The hair was either long or short. There were many types of hair that made your hair stick straight up. People would tease there hair which means they would make it stick straight up. The beehive is an example of one of the wacky hairstyles it got that name because it looks like a beehive because it sticks straight up.
